Since we are limited to very short excerpts of lyrics on the "Song Lyrics Suggestions" thread. I thought it would be nice to start a thread for us to share some of our favorite lyrics that would allow us to post longer excerpts, or even the whole song if we want to. So, in this thread you can share some of your favorite lyrics. You can share part of the songs' lyrics or lyrics to the entire songs if you'd like. You can also post a video of the song if you'd like.
I'll start with a song I've been obsessed with lately. It's my favorite song of 2024 so far.
REBEL - Performed by Anne Wilson - Written by Jeff Pardo, Anne Wilson & Matthew West
Who talks to a man that they can’t see?
Who finds power in an old book they read?
In a world full of doubt, who still believes?
Who talks to a man that they can’t see?
Call me crazy, call me a fool
I ain’t scared cuz I know the truth
Ain’t gonna run, ain’t gonna hide
Ain’t gonna change my mind
Chorus:
"When the crowd goes one way, I go the other
When the battle rages I won’t back down
The gates of hell are gonna shake and tremble
In the name of Jesus gonna stand my ground
If a rebel’s what it takes
A rebel’s what I’ll be
Cause the one I follow
Was a rebel like me"
Got a long line of rebels in the family tree
The ones who weren’t afraid to make history
David to Goliath, Daniel to the lion
Moses pushing back the sea
Got a long line of rebels in the family tree
(Repeat Chorus)
Who takes His own cross up a hill
Who loves a sinner nobody else will
Who changed the world when His blood was spilled
Who takes His own cross up a hill
They called Him crazy, called Him a fool
But He’s the way, the life, the truth
Ain’t gonna run, ain’t gonna hide
Ain’t gonna change my mind
You can say the sun is shining if you really want to
I can see the moon and it seems so clear
You can take a road that takes you to the stars now
I can take a road that'll see me through
Rest easy, what's on your mind?
Nothing's gonna bother us tonight
When the sky is gray, and it won't change
Save all your heartaches for another day
Save all your heartaches for another day
When there's too much hanging on your worried mind
I'll be there right beside you
When the nights are long, and you're feeling cold
I can be something, yeah, that you can hold
I can be something, yeah, that you can hold
Slow down, slow down the time
Make the world stop spinning around outside
We all fall down but we get back up
'Cause doing it together makes life less tough
Doing it together makes life less tough-Mason Ramsey
I've Seen What He Can Do - Performed by Aaron & Amanda Crabb - Written by Kenna Turner West, Lee Black & Sue C. Smith
I Was Tucking Her In Bed And It Caught Me By Surprise
When My Little Girl Asked Me, What Does God Look Like
I Smiled And Laughed A Little, Leaned Over For A Kiss
Said Baby I Don't Know, But I Can Tell You This
I've Been To The Ocean, I've Stood On A Mountain
I've Seen A Sunset Burn Away A Sky Of Blue
Stared Up At The Star Light, Got Lost In The Midnight
I've Never Seen The Face Of God, But I've Seen What He Can Do
Well, I've Thought About The Wonders Around Us Every Day
The Stuff That If You'd Let It, Would Take Your Breath Away
But I've Also Found His Glory Shine From Within
The Heart Of A Sinner Who's Just Been Born Again
I've Been To The River, I Watched Souls Going Under
Forgiveness Washed Them Clean And Mercy Made Them New
Gone Is The Old Man, I Can Tell You First Hand
I've Never Seen The Face Of God, But I've Seen What He Can Do
And Oh, For Now I Don't Need No Picture,
Somehow This Old World Helps Me See Him Clearer
Cause I've Walked In The Valleys, Cried Out From Sorrow
I Can Tell You Every Fire He's Brought Me Through
And I Know Him Better, Love Him Forever,
I've Never Seen The Face Of God, No, I've Never Seen The Face Of God,
But I've Seen What He Can Do
Titanic - Performed by The Villines Trio - Written by Tammy Dunaway
"Come and listen to a story about 2 men and 2 boats: One ship would sink and the other would float: One man listened to God: built his ship by faith: The other leaned on man's knowledge and built it man's way: Now one ship was lowly: mocked with hate: And when it came time to board, it took only 8: Oh, the other was so lovely: thousands lined up to sail: In the ark there was safety: The Titanic failed: Go sail the Titanic, take your chances at sea: It looks so majestic, surely it could not sink: Or you can board the old ark: The choices are plain: You've got a hell to shun or a Heaven to gain: I heard a call from the captain: She's ready to board: You must choose this old world or put your trust in the Lord: Choose the old ship of Zion: She's ready to go: Oh, the world will go down but the church will sail on: Don't sail the Titanic: Come board the old ark"
It's a God Thing - Performed by The Dunaways - Written by Jerry Salley & Rusty Golden
The doctor walked in with that look on his face
and said, we've done all that we can
All you can do for your baby is pray
I’m sorry, it’s out of our hands
So, we did and now after all of these years
There's just one explanation to why she still here
It’s a God thing, it’s not just luck or chance
It’s not circumstance, or a coincidence
It’s not a man thing, no its greater it’s not just a good thing
It’s a God thing
He hadn’t been sober in seventeen years,
That’s why it was hard to believe
When the preacher's words brought Ronnie Morgan to tears
And he ended up down on his knees
Where he knelt there at the altar and prayed
He proved that we're never too far gone to say
It’s a god thing, its not just luck or chance
It’s not circumstance, or a coincidence
It’s not a man thing, no its greater it's not just a good thing
It’s a god thing
I’ve witnessed sunsets that painted the sky
That nearly took my breath away
I’m always amazed to hear some people say
It’s all just one grand mistake
From mountains and oceans, the moon and the stars
I see his hand and I know in my heart
It’s a God thing, it’s not just luck or chance
It’s not circumstance, or a coincidence
It’s not a man thing, no its greater it’s not just a good thing
It’s a God thing, it’s not just luck or chance
It’s not circumstance, or a coincidence
It’s not a man thing, no its greater it’s not just a good thing
It’s a God thing
